As the dialogs take care of themselves by calling delete this on post-destroy time, you can safely let them live their live, and launch them this way: new CModeless; On the other hand, if you keep your code as is, everything will work OK nevertheless --rewriting the value stored at pdlg does not affect in any manner to the dialogs previously created. Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo Re: from "modeless dlg" article by nishant Ernest Laurentin13-Jul-02 7:46 Ernest Laurentin 13-Jul-02 7:46  Joaquín, It's always a better idea to keep track of dialogs that you created! It would not be nice to have "multiple" or being able to create "hundreds" of the same dialog just because they are not visible on taskbar or not on top, and the user will lose focus on number of this dialog that he created. This is just to say that it's always better to keep track of them.

You need to store your pointers into a vector or ( heaven forbid ) a CArray, so you have them all. Otherwise, you have dangling pointers, and your UI no longer has any control over the dialogs it created.

MDI ns13-Jul-02 1:28 ns 13-Jul-02 1:28  I am going to use the registry saving stuff because when my app starts, the main screen shows up with no data in it (but configured with settings previously saved by user), the app is supposed to go check the registry, and if it finds a database name stored there, things progress, but if not, a CFIleDialog Open pops up. So I gather I''ll be using: RegQueryValue and RegSetValue. Have to set stuff when leaving. Which two places does one save and retrieve from? Which class and which event? I dont have a feel for this yet. thanks, ns Re: which class to do registry setting saving/querying in? MDI Nish Nishant13-Jul-02 1:55 Nish Nishant 13-Jul-02 1:55  Hmmmm, perhaps in your BOOL CWinAppDerived::InitInstance(), just before the creation of the CMainFrame window. Or if you actually want the window up before you read the values, then put them in CMainFrame::OnCreate after all the stuff that's already put there by the App wizard Nish Author of the romantic comedy Summer Love and Some more Cricket [New Win] Review by Shog9 Click here for review[NW] Thank you! ns13-Jul-02 2:07 ns 13-Jul-02 2:07  Appreciate the info. I'll try it as soon as I figure out what stuff it is that I actually need to save ...something like app size configured by the user, and other details like location on the screen I suppose.Thanks again, ns CFileDialog spawned from doc class ns13-Jul-02 0:49 ns 13-Jul-02 0:49  I have: void CTrain1Doc::OnSelectdatabase() { //CFileDialog fileDlg( TRUE, NULL, NULL, OFN_ALLOWMULTISELECT | OFN_HIDEREADONLY, "All Files (*.*)|*.*||", this); CFileDialog fileDlg(TRUE, NULL, NULL, OFN_HIDEREADONLY|OFN_FILEMUSTEXIST, "Database Files(*.bmp)|*.bmp||",NULL); } The commented out line was the way I saw it in a codeproject sample. But my compiler said it needed a Cwnd* in parameter 6, not a doc *, so I made it NULL. Is this ok? Are there any dangers of saying the parent is NULL?

Not EndDialog right? THis is an MDI project. I didnt want to use the standard exit provided in the default menu... Which class shall I associate this Exit item with? View? Doc? or MAinFrame? Thanks, ns Re: Menu "Exit" - which class in MDI should handle this COMMAND handler? Nish Nishant13-Jul-02 0:38 Nish Nishant 13-Jul-02 0:38  What exactly do you want to do with the Menu-Exit handler? The Menu-File-Exit basically posts a WM_CLOSE to the main frame window. So if you want to prompt the user and ask her whether she wants to quit, override WM_CLOSE in your main frame window!

Ancient Dragon13-Jul-02 0:46 Ancient Dragon 13-Jul-02 0:46  If you look up the ID for that menu handler ID_APP_EXIT on MSDN you will find the answer. It contains a short explanation how many standard menu commands are implemented. ID_APP_EXIT: Exit the application. CWinApp::OnAppExit handles this command by sending a WM_CLOSE message to the application's main window. The standard shutting down of the application (prompting for dirty files and so on) is handled by the CFrameWnd implementation. Customization of this command handler is not recommended. Overriding CWinApp::SaveAllModified or the CFrameWnd closing logic is recommended. If you choose to implement this command, we recommend you use this command ID. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nish Nishant13-Jul-02 0:32 Nish Nishant 13-Jul-02 0:32  Okay I am gonna make a guess here, but I think I am gonna back my guess I just added a listbox to a new dialog and associated it with a CDragListBox object, compiled, ran and got the debug assert The problem is that, by default the dialog resource editor will set the LBS_SORT style for the list box control. That's what causing the assert. Take properties and make the Sort property to False, it'll be True by default.

Re: msxml parser Giles12-Jul-02 23:10 Giles 12-Jul-02 23:10  Create a new DOMDocument object called say xdoc. Add nodes to the XML tree of the type IXMLDOMNode, and then call doc.xml to return the XML as a string. There are a few articles on CP showing you how to #import and make use of the COM objects. MS have provided two XML parsers. The DOM parser, and the SAX parser. The DOM parser basically does what its told as its just a series of objects and calls to manipulate them, where as the SAX paser is event based which can make it quite useful for parsing big documents in a distrubuted environment. http://www.codeproject.com/soap/iexmlparser.asp
